The essential difference is that unlike WordPerfect, Word is a style based
application. It does not have discrete and transparent codes to display. If
you format your document using styles rather than try and apply methods you
have learned from Word Perfect you would find it easier to manage.

Every paragraph has a style attached and those styles can be interchanged
and edited, and new ones can be created to provide the formatting you
require. If you save your preferred style definitions in a template, it is
easy to create new documents with a standard appearance.

It is possible to apply manual formatting to text, but it should normally be
avoided in favour of character styles, which by simple redefinition make it
possible to change the appearance of the whole document.
